Ended at Last.

The other day quiet lady, "a years
old, died in New York. She was COM
paratively unknown, and it was not until
her death that her neighbors learned that
she was Mrs. Emma A. Williams. She
claimed to belong to Los Angeles, Cali
fornia, and was on q visit to niece.
Thirty years ago she was q Mrs Gun
ningham. At that time she lived in New
York, and among her lodges was DR..
Harvey A. BurdeN, wealthy dentist,
who was found dead ON the floor Of his
room. He had several knife wOaads in
his body, but there was no clue to the
perpetrator of the crime. Several of the
Inmates of the house were suspected, sey-
eral arrested, but the most astute detec-
tive work of the century failed to un-
earth the murderer Mrs Cunningham
claimed that she mad been privately mar
ried = Burdell, and sued Tor share OF
his estate, but was detected by the au-
thorities in deep laid scheme by her
producing bogus baby, and her claims
were rejected She retired to California,
where she married DIR. Williams. a man
Of wealth and position. In the course Of
time her husband deserted her, and she
died comparatively poor. The case is
recorded as one oil the most mysterious
in the annals Of crime in this country.

In paper read before the Maine Pomo-
logical Society, ID. =. True says Zone
OF the most common mistakes made by
some Of the best orchardists is in having
too many varieties, making more work in
harvesting and not SO desirable In some
cases number of varieties have been
placed in ole tree This is one of the
worst mistakes. Different locations re-
quire different varieties to get the best
results. Big mistakes in the selection
of varieties have been made One of the
great questions with the orchardist is
what is the most profitable variety to
grow and meet the wants of the present
and future market Mistakes are quite
common in the distance of planting out
trees. This question is largely one of
circumstances. If one has more land
than money, it may be best not to set so
near Where land is more costly trees
may be set twice as thick as needed, and
when the trees cover the land half
of them may be removed
One of the saddest of mistakes is where
one puts trees in old worn out grass fields,
and wholly ncglects them aud expects to
raise an orchard. All such cases end in
miserable failure Another mistake is in
placing mulch SO near the trunk of tree
and IN such quantity that it will heat
and kill the tree. The writer can testify
to the loss Of fifty valuable trees killed
in this way.
Losses may occur from mice and the
borer. Some have had whole orchards
destroyed by one or both of these enc
mics. Careful pruning is necessary. but
some have made bad mistakes in this
direction the leaves are to the tree what
the lungs are to the body. Extreme cut
ting should be avoided
In grating, orchards in some eases
have been nearly ruined by saving too
large limbs or hubs, setting poor scions.
grating limbs in the center of the tree,
using poor wax, neglecting to look after
the scions after the work has been per
( formed These have been the cause OF
much damage. Turning sheep aud lamb,
into young orchard without taking the
precautiOn to coat the trunks OF the tree,
with manure has caused big loss il
some cases. Oxen and large cattle hay,
proved very fatal to young trees whci
turned into the orchard Allowing tree
10 ovcrbcar and break themselves dowi
is a mistake Thin the fruit, but do no
prop the limb.
If one has dwarf pears, as the Quinc
root is iibrous, do not let the ground re
main in grass; if you do you will make
mistake. Paying big prices for new
varieties has in some cases proved a mis-
take.

The fact that New York city consumes
5000, 600 barrels of beer annually
which, being averaged, gives each man,
woman and child about five barrels -
and considering the further fact that
there is q large proportion OF on-drink-
ing persons, especially children, suggests
the idea that there are many people in
that metropolis who get more than their
share OF the amber Teutonic beverage;
and it also suggests story about an old
German brewer, who was brought in as
a witness to testify as an expert whether
or not beer is intoxicating. The lawyer
for the defence asked
''Do you drink much beer 2"
''Vell, trink me a glass aloud efery
ten mnnid"
Eyes Well, do you find it intoxi-
eating?
''Nein"
The Judge then asked a question:
Glow much beer do you drink every
day, sir 2"
The brewer looked up with some
what puzzled expression, as if he had
been piled with problem impossible of
solution, and finally hlurted out
